Doors of 55", just reaching 48" behind the bumper (legal). They can adjust the second break angle. Or just stay at 11 deg. I am hoping to tuft test and maintain attachment at 16 or 18 deg. This is to follow Aeroheads advice that drag is porportional to wake size, or as I call it, the 'aperture'.
Once I succeed on the basic tail I will put tail lights at the tips and add a foldable or detachable polycarbonate extension to ~96".

I think you will start to see results with a new 11 degree angle at the vehicle. I like that your design allows for multiple angles for your main panels. I expect you will see separation at 18, 16, and 14 degrees but it doesn't hurt to try if you have the time.
